Tasting - La Lejania



Name:  La Lejania
Variety: Sauvignon Blanc
Region:  Central Valley
Country:  Chile
Year:  2015
Price:  $10
Winery review:  A light, refreshing, balanced sparkling wine with fruit flavors and aromas of citrus, pear and peaches, followed by a nuance of spice.  Enjoy this sparkling wine as an aperitif, or with salads and spicy dishes, especially those using citrus fruit. For dessert this wine pairs well with fresh berries or a fruit tart.
My review:  During my initial "sniff" of the wine, I picked up on grapefruit and apple.  After tasting it, the overall mouthfeel was light, and dry, but not overly so.  After the second taste, I picked up on some light cranberry tones.  I did not try it with food.
